Answer:

5| ≤ ¾

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Jenny runs five miles a day.

Also, we are told that he has an absolute error value of ¾ mile.

So, it means the true distance he ran could range from between (5 + ¾) to (5 - ¾) miles.

Answer:

C) |m-5|=0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

|m-5|=0.75

if m≥5     m-5 = 0.75         m = 5.25   ...  maximum

if m<5     -(m-5) = 0.75      -m + 5 = 0.75         m = 4.25    ... Minimum

|m-5| ≥ 0   D is not the option
